Gambino's gonna steal this entire movie. Was that ever in doubt? The movie might be called Solo but I've seen way more hype for Lando. |

In all honesty, Lando might have been a better character for a standalone than Han. Which gives me a chance to recommend the five issue Lando comic from Charles Soule. As for the movie, itself. It looks...fine. I'm not going in there expecting it to change the entire universe or anything. |

His legit (but still slightly shady) business ventures were infinitely more appealing to me than Han Solo: Professional Husband. |

Post-ROTJ Legends? Nothing. His stories dried up much quicker than that of the twins and Lando. |

I think it looks like a lot of fun. It's not like Star Wars was ever high art. They're meant to be fun first and foremost. That's why I hated The Last Jedi so much.

Well, I'll definitely say I have a lot more confidence after that trailer. Still cautiously optimistic tho.

I do wish there was a General Star Wars thread for me to post this in. But since this is the most active Star Wars thread right now I'll post it here: My Star Wars action figure collection:   Top: Darth Nihilus, Darth Bane, Baze Malbus, Chirrut Îmwe, Jyn Erso, K-2SO, Mara Jade, Luke Skywalker Bottom: Boba Fett, Luke Skywalker, Ben Kenobi, Sigel Dare, Poe Dameron, Ahsoka Tano, Luke Skywalker, Rey, BB-8, Finn  Top: Mara Jade, K-2SO, Luke Skywalker, Bastila Shan, Qui-Gon Jinn, Anakin Skywalker, R2-D2, Obi-Wan Kenobi Bottom: BB-8, Rey, Finn, Jacen Solo, Chewbacca, Han Solo, Jawas, Jaina Solo  Top: Yuuzhan Vong Warrior, Count Dooku, Emperor Palpatine, Darth Sidious, Darth Malak Bottom: Luminara Unduli, Barriss Offee, Agen Kolar, K'Kruhk, Sharad Hett, Kit Fisto, Ki-Adi-Mundi, Mace Windu  Top: Emperor Palpatine, Darth Sidius, Darth Malak, Darth Revan, Kylo Ren, Lego Darth Revan, Darth Vader, Maris Brood Bottom: Sharad Hett, Kit Fisto, Ki-Adi-Mundi, Mace Windu, Yoda, Aayla Secura, Plo Koon, Saesee Tiin, Kyle Katarn  Top: Lego Darth Revan, Kylo Ren, Darth Vader, Maris Brood, Asajj Ventress, Darth Krayt, Darth Maul Bottom: Aayla Secura, Plo Koon, Saesee Tiin, Kyle Katarn, Quinlan Vos, Stass Allie, Nicanas Tassu I have a thing for Jedi/Sith and lightsabers, which is why a majority of my collection is them. I ran out of room so the order is kinda all over the place. The top row was supposed to be for favourites, the second was for characters who kinda defied categorization, the third was for Sith and the bottom was Jedi. But it's gotten jumbled over the years. Revan (for example) is my crowd jewel so he should be in the top row.  |

I just don't like how so many shots are so dark. SW needs a bright color palette, not this Snyder crap.

I’m a bit sad that Phoebe Waller-Bridge is just playing a droid but other than that,this looks decent.

The quality of figures has nose-dived since Disney bought them, both in variety of figures and actual quality. Not much articulate anymore. |

Judging from the release date, Disney. starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Star_Wars:_Lando |

I had a dream a few weeks ago that I was watching it in a theatre. What I saw in my dream was an absolute abomination. It was part animated, had a lot of drug induced imagery and I got up and left after ten minutes. So rest easy knowing that it couldn't be worse than what I saw in my dream.

It came out a year or 2 ago from Marvel, so it's Disney. But it's really good, I'd still recommend reading it. |
